ELKO, Nev., Nov. 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Thunder Mountain
Resources, Inc. (Company), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Thunder
Mountain Gold, Inc. (OTC:THMG) (BULLETIN BOARD: THMG) , is pleased
to report that it has completed the staking of 58 lode mining
claims located in the Reese River Valley approximately 20 miles
south of Battle Mountain, Nevada. The claims were located to cover
a geophysical target identified in the valley-fill pediment in the
Reese River Valley. Located along the western flank of the Shoshone
Range, the target is defined by a regional gravity high-low
flexure, as well as a magnetic anomaly. These are both regional
features defined by high-level surveys. In addition, the magnetic
anomaly was confirmed by a ground survey conducted by the Company.
The prospective target lies along a northwest structural trend with
the southern part of the Battle Mountain district which includes
Newmont's Phoenix deposit to the northwest and Barrick's
Cortez-Pipeline Mines to the southeast. The claims are located
across the valley to the east of the Cove-McCoy Mine. X-Cal
Resources' Reese River and Mill Creek Properties are to the south
and southeast respectively. Northwest trending mineralized
structures in the Battle Mountain mining district are characterized
by elongated plutons, granodiorite porphyry dikes, magnetic
lineaments and regional alignment of mineralized areas. Numerous
deposits in the district are localized where younger north striking
normal faults crosscut the northwest structural trends. A similar
structural setting with a related magnetic anomaly is interpreted
to underlay the valley fill on the Trout Creek claim group. In
addition to these features, the claims also are situated on a
projected westward extension of a ring structure exhibited in the
Shoshone Range. The Company intends to conduct additional
geophysical surveys over the Trout Creek property in 2008 to help
define potential drilling targets, and will entertain a joint
venture arrangement with others conducting exploration in the area
to further evaluate the potential of the property. About Thunder
